Gem, Mineral, Jewelry and Fossel Show

The Gem, Mineral, Jewelry and Fossel Show sponsored by the Richland Lithic and Lapidary Society was held at the Richland County Fairgrounds on June 7 and 8.

Loudon, Chad and Lucas

Loudon, Chad and Lucas joined me in attending.  I love this show.  It is recognized in the surrounding states as a "stand out" show.  I told Tom Kottyan that he had outdone himself again this year in organizing it.

I find that I get lost in looking at the rocks, all identified for me.  What a pleasure.  Tom displayed two cases full of gorgeous agates and Pam Laurer displayed a case of beautifully crafted and polished lithic jewelry.  The other cases were also filled and were too numerous for me to mention them all.

Lucas and Loudon brought some of their allowance and enjoyed the silent auction and the other beautiful rocks for sale.  They enjoyed buying geodes and watching them opened.  They went home very pleased.  Time got away from us.  

I believe this show is a yearly occurrence and is recommended to anyone interested in the Earth and science thereof.
